- my responsibilities didn't change in years, kind of good because I am trying to be better with what I do
- salary grown slowly, my colleagues got way more than me
- I enjoy mentoring and leveling different team members, and also growing them and delegate task. It left me with so little (high level decision making) that I don't feel motivated enough for.
I don't know what exactly I am looking for. I am happy, I am not saying otherwise, but I feel that I need to grow my knowledge where I will be able to provide more value in future
the growth rate that I've been going through in the past few years is slow and I would like to learn more and be able to provide bigger value to the people/companies I work with
Also, what hobbies do you have? Perhaps you need to find something fun to do when you're not working and not being a dad/husband.
Or maybe you need to change employment to get out of your comfort zone a bit and see what else is out there. I've found it's easy to stagnate when staying with the same company too long, though there are of course exceptions.
